Early Treatment
Early orthodontic intervention addresses developing bite and alignment issues in children. This stage focuses on guiding jaw growth and creating space for permanent teeth. Ideal for ages 7-11, it prevents complex problems and reduces future treatment needs. Our approach ensures optimal dental development through gentle, child-friendly techniques.
Invisalign
Invisalign uses custom-made, removable plastic aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. Suitable for adults and teens, this treatment offers aesthetic benefits with no metal brackets or wires. Patients appreciate the convenience of removing aligners for eating and cleaning, combined with predictable, gradual tooth movement.
Traditional Braces
Durable stainless steel braces provide effective tooth alignment for complex cases. Modern designs feature smaller brackets and colour-coordinated elastic ties for personalisation. This proven method remains the most cost-effective solution for comprehensive orthodontic correction across all age groups.
Clear Braces
Ceramic braces combine effectiveness with aesthetic appeal, featuring tooth-coloured brackets that blend naturally with enamel. Ideal for adults seeking discreet treatment, they offer similar functionality to metal braces while maintaining a more subtle appearance during the correction process.
Incognito Braces
Incognito braces are custom-fitted to the back surfaces of teeth for complete invisibility. These precision-engineered appliances deliver effective results for patients requiring fixed treatment without visible hardware. They represent the ultimate solution for professionals and image-conscious individuals seeking discreet orthodontic care.

Report
I attended a consultation with Dr Jimenez about possible orthodontics treatment. After taking some dental pictures and reviewing my x-rays and bite, we discussed treatment options. She was friendly, thorough in discussing my options and detailing the pros and cons of treatment even in cases where a factor might discourage me from proceeding with treatment. While I did not end up proceeding with the orthodontics, I thought her manner and expertise were excellent and I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking to get braces or other orthodontics treatment.
